As a company, we also prioritise investing in community projects that benefit the communities we depend on for our coffee.

Our Coffee

Our coffee is sourced ethically from sustainable farms across the globe, and we proudly feature the Rainforest Alliance, Fair Trade, and UTZ certificates on the majority of our products. This reinforces our unwavering dedication to our brand ethos, ensuring we maintain our commitment to ethical practices and leave a lasting positive impact on the planet.

Finca Casa de Piedra is one of two farms run by Café Directo, a family business founded in 2013 by father-and-daughter team Gerardo and Jennifer Arias. With more than 30 years of experience, they specialise in producing exceptional specialty microlots across a variety of innovative processes, always guided by fair, ethical trade and a deep respect for the environment.

The Farm

Nestled in Costa Rica’s renowned Tarrazú region, Finca Casa de Piedra benefits from a unique combination of rich volcanic soils, cool microclimate, and elevations up to 1,800m above sea level. These conditions are ideal for cultivating outstanding coffee varieties, including Catuai, Pacamara, and Gesha, each thriving in this high-altitude terroir.

The Process

This lot is a natural process, designed to highlight fruit-forward complexity. The journey begins with the selective hand-harvesting of only the ripest cherries. After harvest, floatation separates out the densest and highest-quality fruit. The cherries are then dried slowly on raised beds and patios for around 30 days, ensuring even flavour development. Once dried, the beans are carefully rested in a cool, dry environment before being hulled, graded, sorted, and bagged for export.

In the Cup

The result is a coffee that captures the spirit of Tarrazú with vibrant fruit sweetness and layered complexity. Expect a cup that is bright and juicy, with clean tropical fruit tones, balanced and structured, thanks to slow, careful drying and smooth and refined, with a lingering sweetness.

A beautiful example of Costa Rican craftsmanship, designed for home brewers who want to explore the rich spectrum of flavours this origin has to offer.
